Using his MV8800 sampler, Ethio beatmaker Planet Monkey works as a sample magician and makes an album for fans of Madlib, Bonobo & Mulatu Astatke. “To The City Of Green Lights” tells a story in the tradition of the tastefull 90’s when creative sampling was at its highlights Pressed on CD, because it’s a roadtrip to the many places the jungle of life has to offer, it comes in a high quality digipack with exciting artwork by Emiel Almoes

Pushin Wood Soundsystem gives “Crack The Nuts” a Dub/Afro/Bossa re-groove to finish the story and a clear statement is made, this is just the beginning of what we’ll hear from this team
